'Pathetic': Internet Fumes Over Couple 'Using Dead Fly' To Avoid Paying At Restaurants

Amid a recent surge of complaints on social media detailing various food-related mishaps, a particularly unique and alarming incident has garnered attention. Customers have reported distressing experiences ranging from discovering a “human finger” in an ice cream tub to encountering “dead rats and bugs” in their meals, even at upscale restaurants. These incidents have sparked significant concerns regarding food safety and hygiene practices.

While it has raised major concerns regarding food preparation and packaging safety issues, there are reports alleging that a middle-aged couple deliberately contaminates their food. The reason behind their actions is likely to provoke anger.

An X (formerly Twitter) user, named Udit Bhandari, recently shared a disturbing revelation on the microblogging site. He recounted meeting a middle-aged couple at a party who disclosed a shocking habit. According to the user, they admitted to frequently dining at 5-star restaurants in Delhi/Gurgaon and bringing along a dead fly with them.

“Halfway into their meal they would quietly slip this into their food & then create a huge fuss over it. The management in a bid to placate them would either not charge for that dish or in most cases make their entire meal free. They were proud to share his ‘hack’ for getting free meals and said have done this many many times,” revealed the post.

Moreover, the user added that the couple seemingly engages in this behaviour for amusement, as they do not appear to be financially constrained. Further clarifying in the comment section, the user specified that the alleged couple are not acquaintances but individuals he encountered at a friend’s house party.

Take a look at the post below:

The post has surely angered many and there has been a flurry of reactions from viewers. “I am glad I haven’t met anyone like them. I thought these types of people existed only in reel life and not real,” wrote a user.

“Disgusting, pathetic, that is theft and fraud, shows their upbringing,” commented another user.

Another one pointed out that while they might not be tight on money, they surely are tight on basic civic sense and morality.
